Milligan stated the administration had no input and has no objection to the construction of the road, they have absolutely no comment or recom- mendation as to the tax exemption. Mr. Denslow suggested that due to 9 1 ? 9 1 4 9 KIS ASSEMBLY MEETING - JULY 7, 1977 PAGE 2 the timeliness of the construction season perhaps the assembly could authorize the owner to proceed at his own risk with respect to the expense while we study the policy question of the tax credit.

Concerning the Afognak Planning & Zoning Committee which war formed in the fall of 1975, they would like to have Mr. Milligan, borough planner, assist in some of the village planning. Mr. Estes moved that No. 1: the chair instruct the borough manager, or mayor, to send a letter to Afognak Native Corporat on that we enthusiastically welcome the addition of another town or city ir, the borough, and No. 2: instruct lir.

Ordinance 77 -14 -0, Block 3, Lot 11, Kodiak Townsite Subdivision (Craig Bishop). Mr. Estes read Ordinance No. 77 -14 -0 requesting a rezoning from R -3 to business. Meeting closed, public hearing opened. Mr. Milligan recommended granting the request. A check list for rezoning requirements and a development plan were requested. Mr. Peotter asked for anyone wishing to speak in favor of the request. Mr. Bishop: Pointed out that the property cards indicated this was business property while the zoning map shows R -3 at the time of purchase. Mr. Dave Bean adjc _ent property owner is in agreement with the rezoning. Neither the Community Baptist Church nor the Russian Orthodox Church object. There were 27 notices sent out with no responses. It was stated that the project would be at least 1/2 completed within 5 years. 1 1 1 9 1 2 n n 9 7 KIS ASSEMBLY MEETING - JULY 7, 19 Dave Bean: Stated that he owns Lots uu iv on. It was explained that he can request the rezoning of these assembly in such cases can decrease but it cannot increase the property Tom Logan: Stated that it was the lot has been zoned as business previ oversight that it was not done. It was stated that Father Kreta had to business in this area. 77 PAGE 3 10 and 10A, Block 3, Kodiak Townsite the assembly can initiate but as owner lots. Mr. Peotter stated that the the property included inthe rrezoning included. opinion of the commission that this ously; feels it must have been an withdrawn his objection to rrezoning No one spoke against the ordinance. Public hearing closed; meeting opened. Mr. Estes moved that Ordinance No; 77 -14 -0 be approved at the second reading. Seconded by Hrs. Wallin. Because there was no develop- ment plan available, Mr. Bishop offered to get one. Mrs. Wallin moved to table the request for 15 -20 minutes. Seconded by Mrs. Kavanaugh. Motion carried - 1 with Mr. Jack casting one NO vote. B. Ordinance No. 77 -15 -0, amending the KIB zoning map and definitively zoning all lands within the borough not previously classified. Mr. Jack read Ordinance No. 77 -15 -0. Mr. Denslow explained that there was a flaw in the structure of the ordinance by virtue of portions of the island not currently included in a district on the map representing a void in the maps coverage under the code. Also you had requested that an exten- sive study be done on mechanisms for preserving the integrity of the unzoned portions of the island for any intrusions that may occur from the off shore oil interests that are evolving. Combining the two it was recommended that the borough adopt the conservation district as the broadly applicable land use pattern for that unused portion of the island and to amend the zoning map in the ordinance to implement that objective. This has the recommendation of the planning and zoning commission and feels it meets the interests of the community. Mrs. Wallin stated that the borough was in receipt of letters from Karluk, Old Harbor, Ahkiok, Larsen Bay and Ouzinkie asking that the ordinance would make provisions to include their village townsites, in the Karluk case, core townsite, to zone it all R -1. Mr. .Milligan stated that those letters were in connection with two separate issues, replatting and rezoning which will be taking place later. At :resent the villages are non -zoned areas. The existing land uses would become legal non - conformities. If desired the areas could be rezoned R -1. It is urgent that they start the housing construction in these areas by October 1, 1977. Mr. Logan: Stated that the P 5 Z Commission passed the ordinance and recommended its approval. He recalled that they recommend approval to rezone to R -1 the village subdivisions of Karluk, Ahkiok and Old Harbor and accept the plat with variations for lot size for Karluk, for a vacation and replat of Ahkiok and Old Harbor. Mr. Simmons had asked that the ordinance read: all lands within the village or city be townsite tracts, in Karluk case, core townsite, be zoned R -1, anything else which is presently unzoned at this time be zoned conservation. It was felt that at the time when their overall plan will come up it would designate where would be the business, etc. Mr. Estes stated that if we could send a letter from the borough to Mr. Simmons that it is our intention to get compatible zoning for the entire villages that this would be sufficient to go ahead with their construction. Mr. Peotter stated that under New Business this ordinance as Item R could have first reading by title, such action would satisfy the requirements of HUD. This would not be in conflict with Ordinance No. 77 -15 -0. Public hearing *lased; meeting opened: :Mrs. Kavanaugh moved to adopt Ordinance No. 7`/ -15 -0. Seconded by Mrs. Wallin. Motion carried by unanimous roll call vote. ITEM VI A. Mrs. Wallin moved to remove from the table Item VI A, Ordinance No. 77 -14 -0. Seconded by Hrs. Kavanaugh.

Mr. Bishop stated he would put this require_c information in writing and submit it to the planning department. It was suggested that Mr. Bishop set 3 years as his time limit for this construction. Mrs. Wallin moved that a develonent nlan be included for the planning department. Seconded by Mrs. Cavanaugh. Main motion carried by unanimous roll call vote. 4 : OLD BUSINESS A.

(SY Noted points for clarification on School board minutes of June 13, 1977 under correspondence: "a letter of resignation from Superintendent Robert Greene was read asking that he be released from his contract no later than August 1 and no sooner than Septemberl, 1977" (page 1). It was determined this was a clerical error. On Page 2, for information only, the report was that Mr. Greene stated he was in Juneau and Anchorage where he has spent time discussing grant allocations and funding for the next year for school programs. Item 2 stated that state maintenance funds in the amount of S27,500 were finalized for the upgrading of Peterson Elementary which included painting and replacing of broken glass and in the minutes of June 27 they moved to restrict a portion of the general fund balance after the closing of the 1977 books to be carried over as reserves for 77 -78 for the specific purposes listed, one of those purposes being Peterson School contracted repair. She wondered if there were two budgeted • amounts for repairs on Peterson School. On May 31, 1977, page 4, concerning waivers of school district employees if members of their families are serving on the school board. Mr. Peotter stated that this is a customary practice and is required under law. For information purposes, according to the May 23, 1977 minutes, Mrs. Wallin stated she was in favor of having meetings in the villages but questioned flying out knowing that there would not be a quorum. Mr. Peotter stated that it is required by law that when a meeting is scheduled they must attend the meeting and cancel it for lack of a quorum. (6) Regarding the borough land sale, a list of lands that will be available for sale within a few mon the whs given to the assembly. Asked if it will be on the work session schedule of July 30, 1977 to determine which land will be public interest land and which will be for sale. The land sale will probably be set for September. Mr. Denslow was asked to identify on the list the lands that will be for sale. (7) Mrs. Wallin stated that the people of the Kalsin Inn area and many for several miles around are interested in listening to the broadcast of the school board, city council, p & Z Commission and Assembly meetings. They inquired as to whether it would be possible to broadcast work sessions but it was felt that due to the length of the meetings it would be impossible. Because of the great interest in borough activities, Mrs. Wallin suggested that the assembly, at least once a year, advertise and set up meetings with the Kalsin Bay il community as well as those of the other road systems. Chiniak area would be included with Kalsin Bay, Rendezvous area would be from there on in to town, Island Lake community would be combined with Monashka Bay area, the Bells Flats could either be in town or combined with Island Lake. This would keep the assembly -in closer touch with the residents of those areas regarding their needs and wants. The assemblymen would not receive per diem for this travel, with the exception of Dr. Emmick. (8) A mistake was made in the minutes of June 2, when firs. Wallin stated that the three members interested in being appointed to the Alaska Coastal Policy Council, 9 member committee 6 being elected; it should be 16 members with 9 being elected. i)o word has been received from the Governor's office concerning this. (9) Mrs. Wallin has 1 0 1 2 7 KIB ASSEMBLY MEETING, 0 5 1 n JULY 7, 1977 PAGE i brought up the concept of the Kodiak Island 3orough, private entity Koniag and the State of Alaska sitting down and exploring the possibility of entering relationships regarding OCS joint venture for tha benefit of all the community. Since then she has become aware that the North Slope Borough is also talking to their native cornorations on the same basis. It was suggested that perhaps a meeting could be set up between the two boroughs since their impact problems are very similar which may open new economic opportunities for the borough. Mr. Denslow stated he felt there was a very real advantage to this proposal which would allow the assembly to get more involved in these matters. 'Ars. Wallin Moved to authorize the KIB manager to write a letter to the "north Slope Borough asking them if they are receptive to such a proposal. Seconded by Mr. Jack. Motion carried by unanimous roll call vote. (10) A work session was arranged for July 8, 1977, probably after 2:00 D.M. between the borough and the Ouzinkie board of directors to attempt to settle a problem regarding the watershed issue. The time was set for 5:00 p.m. in the assembly chambers. There will be four Ouzinkie representatives in attendance. (11) If aeon wished to stay after the meeting, Hrs. Wallin had some matters to go over with the borough manager they might be interested in concerning the watershed issue. Mr. Jack: Stated he felt very strongly about the vote taken at his request to find out what happened to the 8134,000 school board reserve fund and asked those who voted against it to justify themselves. Mr. Peotter voted against the motion on the basis of a requested legal opinion regarding the matter. There is the possibility that the assembly has no business to investigate their business operations. Mrs. Kavanaugh con- curred with Mr. Peotter. Two attorneys have been contacted to research this and will present written documented statement to the assembly. Mrs. Wallin asked that anyone who had not had the opportunity to read the 0.E.D.P. update before Saturday, July 9, do so. Mr. Peotter: He concurred with Mrs. Wallin that a very fine job was done on the 0.E.D.P. update. Mrs. Wallin explained that when it is necessary to hire another attorney in addition to the borough attorney, it is up to the manager to do this.
